Evidence for charge mediated coupling in Fe-Ga/PMN-PT composite multiferroic
Abstract
We present an experimental study of the magnetoelectric coupling (MEC) in the Fe-Ga/PMN-PT thin film multiferroic composite by means of x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) and ferromagnetic resonance (FMR). Our measurements show evidence for a charge mediated coupling mechanism, suggested by the asymmetric magnetic remanence (Mrem) behaviour under opposite electric fields ( E) and the asymmetric resonance field (Hr) in the FMR measurements. Also, the FMR measurements reveal a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA), that can be related to an interface charge effect. and it is tunable by E field. Ab initio calculations support the existence of a charge mediated coupling at the Fe-Ga/PMN-PT interface.
